A Time to Remember
Individuals
People who need people constitute Abingdon High
School. Administration, faculty, custodians, cafeteria
staff, student teachers, substitute teachers, bus drivers,
students --all of these people work to make Abingdon High
School what it is today. In the fifteen years of the exis¬
tence of Abingdon High School, individuals have contri¬
buted in a unique way to create a time to remember.

Veteran Educator
Retires With Honors
One of the most difficult jobs found
anywhere is definitely that of county
school superintendent. However, for
the last twenty years in Washington
County, we have been fortunate to have
one of the most dedicated men in the
profession. Dr. E.B. Stanley retired
with honors after serving tirelessly in
what he termed "a rewarding experi¬
ence". He held many positions of honor
in educational organizations, and was
active in his church and community.
Dr. Stanley was honored by his as¬
sociates in the educational field with a
reception at Martha Washington Inn.
Although replaced by a very able man.
Dr. Stanley has left his permanent
influence on Washington County.

County Schools. 2. Dr. Stanley presents the 1972 Wash¬
ington County trophy. 3. Dr. Stanley and Dave Sparks

Dr. B. G. Raines —
New Superintendent
The School Board operated under
new leadership when Dr. B. G. Raines
became Acting Superintendent of Wash¬
ington County Schools in January. Dr.
Raines had recently finished compiling
a detailed policy manual of the state
education requirements as applicable to
Washington County while he was As¬
sistant Superintendent. As representa¬
tives of the districts in which students
of the Washington County School system
live, the School Board was the common
link between all the schools. Meetings
of all high school principals with the
School Board were held to allow the
schools to voice specific problems and
needs. As the governing body of Wash¬
ington County Schools, the School Board
supervised policies, appropriations,
and personnel guidelines which, directly
or indirectly, affected faculty and stu¬
dents.

Principals Give
Guidance at A.H.S.
Two familiar faces at A. H. S. were
those of the school's leaders: Mr. Aubrey
Brown, principal, and Mr. V. T. Rector,
assistant principal. Not only did Mr.
Brown supervise the school as a whole,
but he always showed a friendly willing¬
ness to deal with students and teachers
on an individual basis. The intercom of¬
ten boasted Mr. Brown warmly com¬
mending an individual’s accomplishment.
The responsibilities of Mr. Rector con¬
cerning the maintenance of buildings and
grounds, textbook rental, student traffic
control, and scholastic curriculum, were
managed with competent leadership and
reputable dedication. The student body
and faculty responded to the school’s
principals with a respectful admiration
due leaders of such loyal and inexhaustible
devotion.
Mr. Rector and Mr. Brown pause a moment in the hall.

Secretaries Aid
Students, Faculty
Mrs. Shirley Landreth, school trea¬
surer and bookkeeper for all clubs and
classes, efficiently served as Mr.
Brown's secretary in all administrative
matters. Mrs. Peggy Hughes, a new
face in the main office, was always
busy attending to countless business
matters including student insurance and
bus driver reports, but never too busy
to greet students and teachers with a
smile. Mrs. Euva Sutherland and Mrs.
Barbara Lucy were in close contact with
the students in the attendance office,
issuing absentee and tardy excuses.

Faculty Forms Car
Pools During Crisis
Many things never mentioned before
have happened this year to the faculty.
The male faculty in keeping with tradition,
engaged in wagers concerning the pro¬
gress of their newly-grown mustaches.
During third period one day, two teachers
were found viciously stuffing trash into
another teacher’s box, while a male
teacher was listed on the roster of Miss
Washington County contestants. At fac¬
ulty meetings the men never sat with the
women --never. So, teachers are more
like students than either might permit
themselves to think!

Faculty
The selection of appropriate courses at
Abingdon High School provoked thought and de¬
cision. Our faculty was competent and highly
qualified for each position at Abingdon High
School. For example, teachers were involved
in courses from eighth grade level math to
college math, and from earth science to phys¬
ics. In addition to performing their assigned
duties, teachers also offered their understand¬
ing and friendship. Unknown to many students,
teachers performed outside duties that related
to school -chaperoned dances, sold tickets at
ball games, and rode buses to school -spon¬
sored activities. Like all people, teachers had
good days and bad, but time spent at Abingdon
High School will be a time to remember.

Where would A. H.S. be without its
teachers? Thank goodness that this
question did not have to be answered.
A. H.S. began the year with an enthu¬
siastic faculty, dedicated to their pro¬
fession, trained for their various field,
yet concerned with all phases of school.
They exhibited heartfelt interest in the
individual needs of their students, dis¬
playing at all times the many fine qual¬
ities necessary to make the best teach¬
ers possible.

Seniors Come to Time to Prepare New Goals
We found a beginning five
years ago when the doors of
A. H.S. were opened to us. We
took more pride in our school as
one year built upon another. We
strove for one goal --to be grad¬
uates of A. H.S. We felt small
during this time of preparing to
go our individual ways. When we
ordered our caps and gowns, we
became more aware than ever be-
before that we, the Class of ’74,
had reached our goal of five
years. It was time to make our
new goals, our own new begin¬
ning.

It’s a New World
in Eighth Grade
It was a brand new world --strange
faces, unfamiliar halls, new class¬
rooms. It was a world of sharing lock¬
ers, meeting six new teachers, and
not-so-easily getting to classes on time.
It was a world of discovery - bigger
ideas, new responsibilities, added priv¬
ileges, (and the opposite sex). It was a
world of learning new ways to think, to
act, and to change. It was a world of
finding our answers - through books,
friends, and experiences. It was a
world of both work and fun - there were
pep rallies, ball games, and dances. It
was a world of anticipation and fulfilled
dreams. It was a world we created for
ourselves and a world we will always
remember as the first of five promising
years at A. H. S.

Number Four on
A.H.S. Totempole
Returning to A. H. S. is very different
from walking in for the first time. Not on¬
ly that, we found ourselves with a name
this year - freshman, not just ninth grade.
The year was one of many new experi¬
ences, and much intellectual growth as
well as social growth. Medical self-help
came to the rescue of those of us who are
still rather clumsy. It was great being
able to look down on somebody after last
year. But what it was like to be at the bot¬
tom of the A.H.S. totempole. Yes,
A.H.S. has a totempole of many different
faces. We’re working our way up- -to the
top in '77!

Who's afraid of the Sophomore class?
Being the "in-betweeners" this year meant
one of two things --at mid-term we were
either half finished with our high school
days, or half begun. We still ran from the
juniors and seniors, but we kept the eighth
and ninth graders on their toes! We en¬
joyed our last year of being physically fit
and our first whiffs of formaldehyde in
biology. Athletics played a bigger part in
our lives than ever before. We enjoyed
the year because it brought us closer to¬
gether in many ways --as the Spirited
Class of ’76.

Juniors’ Year
Climaxed by Prom
Easy being a junior? We found our¬
selves swamped with tootsie rolls and
Reese cups, as we worked for a better
prom than ever before. Our brains were
filled with important dates in U. S. His¬
tory and our pencils became dull solving
algebraic equations. From a normal
schoolday to a "Roman Holiday" our junior
year was a time to remember.

Deserving Juniors
Aquamarine, white spinel, white
gold --this year we were faced with the
difficult decision of choosing a class ring.
It was an important day to us; it repre¬
sented eleven years of hard work. This
year, we were rewarded for our academic
achievement. Early in spring, some
members of our class were tapped into
the National Honor Society. This meant
we had excelled in scholarship, leader¬
ship, service, and character. Each activ¬
ity made our junior year special but we all
eagerly anticipated our remaining year.

A Time To Remember
Athletics
A sense of pride, a feeling of achieve¬
ment, a desire for recognition - these are
some reasons Falcon athletes accom¬
plished high goals. A.H.S. offered a great
variety of sports. Girls were offered
interscholastic sports in golf, tennis,
track, basketball, and volleyball, but in¬
tramurals were also encouraged. Pride,
achievement, recognition combined to
make the year a time to remember.

game. 2. Gail Johnson grins as she outfoxes an oppo¬
nent with her dribbling. 3. Players and coaches pause

Determination Gives
Successful Season
The first kickoff, an action -filled game,
the final seconds --all these were moments
the Varsity football team had been waiting
for. The team proved to themselves that all
their determination had paid off, as the sea¬
son ended with a 6-4 record. Coaches
Berkley Clear, Curtis Burkett, and Bob
Buchanan directed the development of the
team, while head coach Larry Bales super¬
vised the whole effort. Lewis Harris and
Doc Wilson earned a position on both the
Southwest District team and the Big Six
team. Mike Gregory also earned a position
on the Big Six team. Every coach, manager
and team member gave of individual effort
to provide himself and the school an added
amount of Falcon pride.

The Junior Varsity football team had
an outstanding season this year, and set a
new school win-loss record for J.V.
teams with 5 wins, 2 losses, and 1 tie.
This was by far the best J. V. record since
Abingdon has participated in the tough
Southwest District. What made it espe¬
cially impressive was the remarkable fact
that 22 of the 30 players were from the
freshman class. After a slow start against
Patrick Henry, the Little Blue came back
the next week to revenge the loss. The
Junior Falcons then remained undefeated
throughout the season until meeting always
powerful Gate City in the final game of the
season. Under the able leadership of
Coaches Karl Reedy, Gail Rutledge, and
Mike Lethcoe, the Junior Falcons put in
long hours of hard work and practice. A
desire to win and Falcon pride made the
season what it was. Determination to im¬
prove next year, as they move up to var¬
sity, gave us hope of great things to come.

Eighth Grade Team
Earns Recognition
Remember that eighth grade football
team? They started their ambitious high
school careers ready and willing to learn.
Like all teams, they put in long hard hours
of determined practice. Led by Eddie Ar¬
nold with 26 points for the season the eighth
grade team went on to obtain a 3-3 season.
Other leading scorers were Charlie Jordan
with 6, Jeff McCray with 10, and Sam McKin¬
ney with 12. The team was fortunate to have
the able leadership provided by Gail Rut¬
ledge. They will always remember their
first season at A. H.S. with pride.

Basketball Team
Led by Seniors
The Varsity Basketball team
moved forward this season with
guiding influence of the Senior mem¬
bers of the team, Chitwood, Wright,
Cole, Thompson, Belcher and Mathe¬
son. Although the scoreboard didn't al¬
ways show a victory, the team them¬
selves experienced their own personal
moments of victory. For the first
time in the school's history Abingdon
was a member of the Big Six, thus
giving them a berth in the tournament.
Another first was the time change.
Due to the energy crisis all games
were played one -half hour later.
Coaches Bishop and Buchanan gave
their time and talent to inspire the
team throughout the season.

Ulcers! Is it worth it? It's always

J. V. basketball team will long be re¬

proving their skills and learning new
techniques. Coach Rutledge instilled in
them the desire to do their best and
accomplish their goals. Sometimes the
going was rough, but a victory was
their aim.

Two of the first groups in the
nation to feel the pinch of the
energy crisis were our own eighth
and ninth grade basketball teams.
Games were cut to a minimum,
but practice went on as usual.
Spirit remained high and finally
soared early togetherness prob¬
lems to end the season with a five
win and four loss record.

corporated into the Junior Varsity
team this year but did get to play
four games of their own. Their
record was two wins and two loss¬
es.

District Record Set
by Gale Thompson
Hours of grueling practice made the
Falcon track team what it was. Under the
capable coaching of Gail Rutledge, Curtis
Burkett, and Berkley Clear, the Falcons
soared to great success. Senior Gale
Thompson led the team by breaking the
school and district record in the two-mile
run with a 9:53. 0 time. The track team ran
in large meets such as the Radford Invita¬
tional the Abingdon Relays, and the first
annual Big Six meet. Each team member
was given the chance to score points for
himself and the team, thus having a reward
for the hard practices and training.
1. Eddie Patterson clears a hurdle and looks toward the
finish line. 2. Abingdon milers prepare for a touch race.
3. Mike Gregory takes the last steps for a victory.

1. Coach Rutledge and Coach Clear check the running score

County Tournament
Won by Golfers
Who will be low man for the Falcon
golfers this week? This was a familiar
question asked among the golfers this
year, with each golfer hoping to be able
to say, "I was low man for the Fal¬
cons. " Coach Bales and the Abingdon
golfers had a very successful season.
They worked tirelessly to earn the title
of Number-One in the Washington Coun¬
ty Tournament. Members of the Golf
team include Don Holtsinger, Mark
Seamon, Rick Ornduff, Teresa Cunning¬
ham, Steve Holbrook, Barry Matheson,
Randy Cole, Karl Lorenz, and Kurt
Lorenz.

New Girls’ Sport
Introduced at A.H.S.
The girls of Abingdon High School took
another step forward this year in athletics.
For the first time, the girls participated
in tennis. Under the direction of Mrs.
Jean Matheson, the girls worked long,
hard hours. Even though they did not have
a winning season, their matches
taught them many lessons and provided
them with many valuable experiences.
Those girls putting their tennis skills to
work were Gail Johnson, Tracey Sweet,
Lynn Snyder, Sally Pinkerton, Linda
Bartlett, Elaine Bradley, and Connie
Martin. The best of luck goes to the
girls' tennis team in the future.
1. Tracey Sweet anticipates the opponent's serve.
2. Members of the team include: Front Row: Linda

Girls’ Relay Teams
Compete in Regionals
"Break that record", a dream, a
hope and sometimes an accomplishment
set by this years girls track team at
A.H.S. The team was made up of able
and willing girls who competed with
other schools in the county. Often the
girls were seen struggling through prac¬
tice on an early Saturday morning learn¬
ing to listen how to run. Sometimes
there were many complications and
struggles but the team's spirit remained
high. They put in long hours of practice
and hard work to accomplish that dream.

Eight O’Clock Comes Early for Intramural
Athletes
Basketball, shuffleboard, ping pong,
badminton -- these were just a few of
the sports in the Abingdon High School
intramurals program. Intramurals
were provided for those girls who did
not compete interscholastically and, of
course, those who did. To take part in
intramurals meant being ready to play
at eight o'clock, but it also meant learn
ing the valuable lesson of sportsman¬
ship and the excitement of competition.

A Time to Remember
Classes
Classes for most students were very important at
A.H.S. Some days it seemed there was just too much to
do, and everyone was kept very busy with homework,
plus extracurricular activities. Teachers willing to help
and students wanting to achieve high academic goals
made 1974 a time to remember.
1. Chemistry is a fascinating and sometimes an "exploding" class. 2. A
science class examines a flying saucer. 3. The band marches at halftime.
4. Cindy Harris marches in a parade. 5. David Price observes a chemistry
experiment.
119
Students Display
Athletic Abilities
Physical Education
"All right! Count off!" These im¬
mortal words will be remembered by
many a student long after they have
completed their physical education re¬
quirements. The varied program of¬
fered an opportunity for students to
participate in many different kinds of
athletics, from speedball to trampo¬
line. Eighth and ninth grade students
learned practical health and first aid
skills in the classroom, while tenth
graders studied safe driving techniques
and prepared to earn their drivers'
licenses.
1. Mark Johnson and Terry Arnold move the ball for¬
ward for a score during gym class. 2. Wayne Phelps
demonstrates his ability on the trampoline. 3. Curtis
Phillips uses the chin bar on the universal gym.

English class. 2. Kevin Able concentates on literature
during a study period. 3. Rebecca Foran does the nec¬
essary research for her senior term paper.
Shakespeare Is
Explored in Depth
English can be fun! Many students found
this to be true as they took the required
course. Inventive teachers turned the chore
of learning grammar into a pleasurable
task by making such assignments as cre¬
ative writing or skits. For the first time,
upperclassmen had the option of taking
regular English or a course which covered
the subject in more depth. Younger stu¬
dents studied basic grammar and punctua¬
tion, while older students concentrated on
such things as American literature or
Shakespearean drama, as well as term
papers.
122
1. Pam Sexton and Judy Kestner perform a skit in Mrs.
Roberts' English class. 2. Karl and Kurt Lorenz ex¬
amine a Shakespearean stage. 3. Michele Smeltzer
puts the finishing touches on her original poster.
123
Mixing Enjoyment
With Learning
Foreign Language
In the foreign language department,
students became familiar not only with a
language, but also with the culture and
customs of the particular country in which
the language is spoken. The languages of¬
fered were French, Spanish, and Latin.
French students learned popular French
songs and performed them, while Spanish
students studied bullfighting and saw relat¬
ed slides. Latin students illustrated
popular Latin phrases and put them up for
display. This also improved their vocabu¬
lary.
1. Jennie Placak and Jeff Rasnick discuss an exercise in
Spanish. 2. Sally Hill dramatizes a Spanish dialogue
about a girl wearing false eyelashes for a job interview.
3. Debbie Peters reads a story in French about the future.

1. Charlene Clark checks her carbon copy for mis¬
takes. 2. While in typing class, Sandy Roberts
copies an exercise from the book. 3. Barbara Wid-
ener adds figures quickly for speed practice.
Typing Develops
Nimble Fingers
Business Education
Typing comes to mind when one thinks
of business, but this was only one area of
the business education courses offered at
A.H.S. Students had an opportunity to
learn practical office skills, such as fil¬
ing and bookkeeping. Many who were not
going into business took shorthand or ty¬
ping for their own personal use. Typing
was a very popular course, though many
beginners had a hard time at first trying
to coordinate their fingers.
125
Physics Students
Become Film Stars
Science
Science was definitely one of the
most interesting courses at A.H.S. In
the various classes, students became
familiar with the physical world.
Eighth and ninth graders took general
science courses, which prepared them
for the more advanced biology, chemis¬
try, and physics classes. Biology stu¬
dents discovered that disection was not
as bad as they had been led to believe.
Those taking chemistry found it quite
challenging, but enjoyed blowing up
hydrogen-filled test tubes. Physics
students took on the large project of
making a video-tape on the life of
Copernicus.
1. Herbie Ellis examines mirco-organisms through
the miscroscope in biology. 2. Chris Placak per¬
forms in the film produced by the physics class.
3. Michael Marsh and Leslie Childress perform a

Seniors Challenged
by College Work
Mathematics
Many students at A.H.So found the
various math courses to be challenging
and stimulating. First year algebra
students were given a good background
in practical math, while advanced math
students were introduced to calculus.
Geometry and analysis students be¬
came familiar with many new concepts.
Several students participated in various
math contests and fared extremely well.
1. Mrs. Lineberry helps John Hannah to see the
light on a problem in advanced math. 2. Susan
Clark concentrates on her math homework. 3.

Practical Skills
Put Into Practice
Home Economics
The home economics courses at A.H.S.
covered all areas of study that one could
wish for. First year students learned the
relatively simple arts of cooking and sew¬
ing, while the more advanced students had
instruction in home management, marriage
and the family. All students gained practical
experience in homemaking and are now more
prepared for their future roles in life. They
soon realized that patience and skill are
necessary for one to become a successful
homemaker.
129
Free Time to Work,
Study, or Relax
Study Hall
Most students looked forward to
their free periods more than any other
class. For those who had a full sched¬
ule, study hall was a refreshing
break. Students had an opportunity to
catch up on homework or enjoy the
current best-seller. Seniors were
allowed to have unsuperyised senior
study in the cafeteria as a senior priv¬
ilege. This gave them a chance to
study, work on term papers, or shar¬
pen up their bridge skills.
1. Mary Gentry, Becky Kiser, Lynn Kilbourne, and
Mary Lambert relax during senior study. 2. John
Berry uses his study period to do research. 3. Johnny

130
Students Exposed
to Business World
Distributive Education
Through distributive education, up¬
perclassmen were able to get a head¬
start in the business world. First year
students learned business techniques
and third year students attended classes
in the mornings and worked in the af¬
ternoons. Local businessmen cooper¬
ated in this endeavor, and many stu¬
dents could be observed working in lo¬
cal business establishments. Several
students entered county -wide contests
which tested their abilities and most
were winners.
1. Melodie Robinson and Raymond Widener check the
stock at Singleton's. 2. Melodie Robinson places mer¬
chandise on shelves. 3. Margaret Vanover fills out an
application blank. 4. Linda Wolfe has much responsi¬
bility as a cashier.
131
Senior Chosen for
All- State Chorus
Art, Band, and Chorus
Many students found participation in
one or more of the arts to be an enrich¬
ing experience, providing much enjoy¬
ment and satisfaction. Students found an
outlet for their creative talents in band,
chorus, or art. Some students rose to
positions of honor. Lewis Harris was
chosen to represent Abingdon High
School in All-State chorus, and six
band students were eligible to try out
for All-State band.
1. Mrs. Darner accompanies Patti Elliott, Cindy
Farmer, Johna Owens, Beth Hughes, and Regina Horne

133
Exploring the
Past and Present
Social Studies
The social studies programs offered
at A. H. S. were numerous and students
could choose among history, geography,
government, sociology, and humanities.
Government students learned princi¬
ples and practices of American govern¬
ment and discussed the history of
Washington County. The humanities
class was larger than ever, and stu¬
dents chose their areas of study, such
as handicrafts. The sociology class
staged a mock wedding, which was
carefully planned and performed true-
to-life.
1. Lewis Harris and Karen Gentry demonstrate the
Virginia Reel in Humanities class. 2. Beula Price
and Vicky Anderson examine the world map. 3.

Learning a Trade
Before Graduation
Vocational
Has the bus left yet? Each day
several Abingdon High School students
attended the vocational or trade
school. There they had a chance to
learn modern technical skills while
continuing their high school educa¬
tion. Students had a wide variety of
classes to choose from including auto
body repair, practical nursing, home
economics, cosmetology, masonry,
electricity, and several others. They
were able to get practical working
experience while learning a trade.
The vocational school prepared stu¬
dents to go directly from high school
to a good job.
1. Eileen Nunley adjusts the hem of her vest in oc¬
cupational home economics. 2. David Thompson
measures a cinderblock. 3. Darlene Reynolds and
Jewel Mitchell identify the bones of a skelton in
practical nursing.

137
Personal Guidance
Important in Shop
Agriculture and Shop
How does one operate a lathe? In ag¬
riculture and shop classes, students were
exposed to such things as woodworking,
welding, and machinery repair. Courses
such as Agricultural Science and Mechan¬
ics I and II were introductory and explor¬
atory in nature. The agricultural science
segment of the course related to urban
and rural life. Approximately half of the
course was devoted to mechanics. The
students received personal guidance and
counseling leading to entry employment
in an agricultural occupation. Agriculture
and shop proved to be very useful sub¬
jects.
1. Junior Sullins operates a radial arm saw in a shop
class. 2. Ricky Blevins cleans out materials that have
gathered in the dust collector. 3. Curtis Bingham
demonstrates the use of a lathe.
138
Hothouse Becomes
Hotter Than Ever
Horticulture
Learning the methods of growing
beautiful flowers was a rewarding ad¬
venture for high school students. In
horticulture class, they were able to
learn about the care and feeding of hot¬
house plants while gaining practical ex¬
perience by growing their own, which
they could take home later. Students
had a small setback when a section of
the greenhouse burned, but soon every¬
thing was back to normal. Students
watched the growing process as tiny
seeds transformed themselves into
lovely blossoms. From time to time,
the horticulture class provided groups
with special floral arrangements.
1. Diane DeLapp spends her hour in the greenhouse
Removing unhealthy plants from the pots. 2. Mike
Montgomery carefully waters the Easter lilies as one
his many duties in horticulture class.

A Time To Remember
Organizations
"Due to the shortage of gas and other crucial
materials, there will be no dance. " This year
students came face to face with a big problem.
Dances were canceled, and clubs encouraged
carpools to save gas. Despite the energy crisis,
clubs remained active. Each organization worked

sold football programs at Homecoming
and conducted a political survey.

Privilege to Have
Their Own Club
Flame Tri-Hi-Y
What a privilege! A club of our very-
own and we were just eighth graders.
With the falling of leaves came the idea
for a money making project. By raking
leaves we earned about half of our treas¬
ury. A bake sale proved profitable also.
We used our money to provide Thanks¬
giving and Christmas baskets and a
Christmas party for special education
children. Our money making projects and
service projects helped to "create, main¬
tain, extend high standards of Christian
Living. "

What goes into the making of a year¬

probably would have, said "blood, sweat,

school-related events was the responsi¬
bility of the staff and what a big responsi¬
bility it was! Wherever there was ac¬
tion, there was an editor, a staff mem¬
ber, a photographer, or all three! The
staff helped support their undertakings
through a teacher talent show in October,
circulation drive, advertisements sold
to local businesses, and patrons ads sold
at home basketball games. It was "blood,
sweat and tears. "

A Time to Remember
Activities
Dances, pep rallies, plays --all these gave Abingdon
High School an air of excitement. The energy crisis lim¬
ited the number of dances, so those we did have were spe¬
cial. The senior play and one -act play gave students with
acting ability the chance to display that talent. Each activ¬
ity gave students a time to remember.

Homecoming Game
Ends in Victory
The week of Homecoming is always
one of excitement and spirit. Home¬
coming 1973 was no exception. Spirit
Week, sponsored by the cheerleaders,
was won by the "mighty Seniors" al¬
though competition was close. The
halls, with each part assigned to a dif¬
ferent class, were covered with posters
and balloons. The football team was
showered with everything from pizzas
to cakes to crepe paper. Then, the
game Friday night with Richlands
brought more excitement with a 12-8
win over the Tornados. The highlight
of the night was the crowning of the
Homecoming Queen, Sally Smith, who
was chosen by the football team.

1973 Homecoming Theme — Climb Every Mountain
The second annual Homecoming
Parade featured floats made by classes
and clubs. It was followed by a bonfire
during which the classes competed by
cheering. Spirit Week was brought to a
close with a pep rally before the game.
Later that night, couples danced to the
music of Shadrack, a popular band for
A.H.S. dances. The cafeteria was
transformed into a world of crepe pa¬
per and footballs. "Climb Every Moun¬
tain" was the theme.

Pep Rallies Raise
Spirit at A.H.S.
"V-i-c -t-o-r-y! V-i-c -t-o-r-y! "
was a favorite chant of Falcon fans this
year. Several pep rallies were held to
show the Falcons that the student body
was behind them all the way. Two of
these were sponsored by the S.C.A.
with all classes helping to make them a
success. The cheerleaders worked hard
to make up skits portraying the senior
football and basketball players. A pep
band livened up the games by playing
the fight song during time-outs. Spirit
flies high at A. H. SI

Amid bales of hay and blankets,
couples enjoyed themselves at the Sadie
Hawkins Dance, sponsored by the Civ-
inettes. Girls finally got their chance
and they made the most of it. Costumes
were not hard to find - students wore
worn-out blue jeans, crazy socks, and
a few extra freckles. Lil* Abner, Brian
Smith, and Daisy Mae, Mary Jo John¬
son, won by collecting the most money
in their jars. Girls led the guys to the
Hitchin’ Post. Sadie Hawkins is a
change from the normal, but it is a
change most people like.

Seniors Present
“You, the Jury,”
From beginning to end, "You, the
Jury", a courtroom drama with the
charge of murder, captured the intel¬
lect, as well as interest, of the spec¬
tators. The play did not provide char¬
acters as the jury; but allowed the
audience to be the judge by a vote at the
close of the play. The fifteen characters
and many back- stage aids gave two per¬
formances --for the student body and for
the community. All the rehearsing and
striving to achieve realistic characters
resulted in a memorable occasion for
all.

“A” Band Participates in Governor’s Inauguration
From band festivals to concerts to foot¬
ball games, the Senior and Intermediate
bands worked hard to do their best. Begin¬
ning in the summer with band camp, the Sen¬
ior band concentrated on coordinating their
feet with music. The band participated in
many area parades and gave four concerts.
It also cheered the Falcons on to victory with
pep bands. The band was honored when they
were invited to the Governor's Inaugural Pa¬
rade in Richmond. Music varied from pop
and jazz to marches and slow- moving
pieces - so to please everyone.
Both the Senior band and Intermediate
band, which consisted of underclassmen,
received superior ratings in concert festi¬
vals. The Intermediate band becomes better
every year as students improve their musi¬
cal ability.

students participated in All-Regional Cho¬
rus, and Lewis Harris made All-State
Chorus. One of the highlights of the year
was their participation in the Rotary Fro¬
lics. The Abingdon High Chorus joined
with Patrick Henry’s Chorus under the
direction of Mrs. Darner, to provide
completely enjoyable program.
Students Present
“An American Sunset”
Using three characters and a world
of symbolic drama, "The American
Sunset" highlighted depth and explicit
acting characterization. The play pic¬
tures America’s social classification
that often makes or breaks the indivi¬
dual - the way people often place im¬
portance on wealth or position rather
than character or ambition. The play
required much thought and imagination.
The title represented countless people
that society has "buried alive. " Per¬
haps "The American Sunset" could have
been "The Living Dead. "
1. Mrs. StoneweLL, Judy Grantham, snobbishly ex¬

This year the topic was: Resolved: That
the federal government should provide
a minimum guaranteed income. The team
debated several area schools and attended
the district meet at Virginia High. The
negative team represented A0H.S. at the
regional debate at Christiansburg.

bate. 2. Rob Campany and Chris Placak, the negative
team, discuss their ideas. 3. As the affirmative team,

Juniors and Seniors Enjoy a Roman Holiday
Couples enjoyed a warm and roman¬
tic evening at the 1974 Junior-Senior Prom.
The band, Midnight Revival, provided mu¬
sic while couples danced in the Abingdon
Elementary gym. The gym had been trans¬
formed from goals and brick walls to Ro¬
man pillars entwined with ivy and blue
sky. For many, the occasion was sad. The
dance was the last in high school for sen¬
iors. Some reminisced over old times
while others danced in an unbroken circle.

many incidents from grades one through
twelve that were familiar to all. Toasts sa¬
luting different groups such as band mem¬
bers, athletes, and officers were proposed
by class members. Students were given
toasting glasses as keepsakes from a mem¬
orable evening.

Outside Graduation Provides Inspiration for Seniors
A very different class, this year's
seniors, moved their graduation out¬
doors despite the problem of getting
chairs from the inside onto the track
field. It was with a great amount of
pride that they descended the steps onto
the field, the boys clad in blue, the
girls in white. The commencement ex¬
ercises represented a personal triumph
for each and every senior- -12 years of
books, teachers, and report cards. The
valedictorian and salutorian speeches
brought tears to the eyes of both par¬
ents and graduates. Very appropriately,
as the first graduate accepted his di¬
ploma, the sun broke through the clouds
to shine on the entire senior class.
1. Debbie Peters and Larry Montgomery are engaged
in a last-minute discussion before lining up for the
processional. 2. Curtis Lang, Senior Class president,
presides over the commencement exercises as Abing¬
don High has its first outdoor graduation. 3. Melanie
Buchanan expresses her feelings with a smile as she
receives her diploma.
195

picture. 2. Members of the band, under the direc¬
tion of Mr. Tyler, provide special music for the

dictorian, gives the commencement address.
196
1. The top ten percent receive greatly de¬
served recognition. 2. Mary Lambert, salu-
tatorian, addresses the audience. 3. Seniors
find that the long hours of practice have paid
off as they proceed with graduation. 4. Gail
Johnson, class valedictorian, receives her
diploma from Mr. Brown, who is assisted by
class president, Curtis Lang.
Seniors Honored
by Superlatives
Three senior speakers reflected on
the thoughts and feelings of those
graduating- -the days that hold mem¬
ories, the days we live now, the days
to come. They expressed their im¬
pressions of how the past affects the
present and how the present will
directly lead us to the future we create
for ourselves. Their words echoed the
purpose of the graduation and the ex¬
pectations of facing a new world.

A Time to Remember
Prosperity
Business played a big part in the prosperity of Abing¬
don. This year, the town and its merchants faced a new
problem - the energy crisis. Soon each person learned to
handle the limited supply of gas and other disadvantages.
The energy crisis, with its disadvantages, and the willing
businessmen of Abingdon made 1974 a time to remember.
1. A full hour shows on the parking meter. 2. The
energy crisis presents a new problem to area cus¬
tomers. 3. Downtown Abingdon experiences quiet
hours. 4. It's time to stop and remember a year of
prosperity. 5. The historic town of Abingdon is
active in many civic organizations.

Located in the Martha Washington Inn
Abingdon, Virginia
/i dUi&i- ftnafiAecy
Ten years from now, when you pick up this
annual, you will have access to at least 15
new electric appliances that don’t even exist
today!
Electrical innovations will "make the scene”
(as we say in 1973) to benefit health, educa¬
tion, industry and our social lives. You’ll also
see in the next decade more electronic equip¬
ment to purify, filter, recycle and generally
clean up America.
Electricity is doing a lot of things for you
now. It’s going to do a lot more tomorrow.
Our prediction: Life will keep on getting better
— electrically.

I felt something brush my hair
Just now,
--A memory from long ago.
About a happening somewhere . . .
I turn to catch the moment . . .

All the long hours of work are over. The finishing touches
have been added, but before I close the pages, I want to sincerely
thank Mrs. Mary Blevins for designing the cover; Mr. Doug Pat¬
terson, Mr. .Claude Dean, Mr. James Garrett, Mr. John Paul Wil¬
son, Mr. Ed Sheffield, and Mr. Karl Reedy for their photography;
Mr. Jack Cross for his advice on yearbook publishing; and espe¬
cially Mrs. June A. Roberts and Mrs. Sandra Jonas for their un¬
tiring work and continuing dedication to the yearbook staff. The
cooperation of these people along with that of the faculty and stu¬
dent body has made this experience for me - A Time to Remem¬
ber.
